Drinkagon is a board game for up to 6 players that combines drinking and strategic thinking. You have to carefully plan your moves and find the shortest possible way to conquer your opponent’s base. You need to use tactics and strategy in order to stay sober and try not to step on the green (TRUTH) or red (DARE) fields. You move your figurines with our unique 3D printed D12 dice.

To spice up the game you can use your moves to move your opponent's’ figurines far from their victory. Make them lose, answer tricky questions and do crazy challenges, or just get them drunk.

We have developed a free iOS & Android app with hundreds of truth & dare cards which makes the game surprising and endlessly fun.

The game is extremely easy to learn and it will take you only a minute to explain the rules to your friends! The goal is very simple: Conquer your opponent’s base with your figurines, while trying to stay sober!

Drinkagon's set-up takes a few sips worth of time and, the rules are kept short and sweet, just like your favorite shots. The rest is up to your strategic skills and your ability to stay sharp once you get tipsy. And you will get tipsy. You can always avoid drinking by simply revealing your secrets and getting awkwardly embarrassed in front of the other players. Yes, it really is that simple.

To spice up the tactical part of the game and add some chaos to the pot of logic, our free iOS/Android Drinkagon app brings to life the virtual cards that make the opponents either perform a challenge, answer a personal question or drink a specific dosage of their favorite potion.

Instead of requiring the purchase and use of physical cards, all of the Drinkagon challenges will be collected and available in our Drinkagon app - free to use anytime, globally. This way, continuously open for updates and widely practical, we expect the app to improve the game flow along with delivering a great dose of fun since there is no limit to the diversity of cards players can draw.

We plan to release the first version of the app before the campaign ends. The first collection will have a variety of 300 truth & dare cards included, but we won’t stop at that level. After the initial launch, we’re going to keep on injecting new cards, sorting them into new themes and adding other functionalities to make Drinkagon interesting and fun no matter how many rounds you end up playing.

You’ll be free to pick the theme depending on the group preferences of the people you are playing with.

Exciting times ahead, dear backers! Sip by sip, our gathered resources became a little waterfall of opportunity. Now we look forward to enrich our Drinkagon game and to make it even better for you. Everything that we wished to include but looked hardly achievable, lately seems highly possible - all thanks to the KS community and many other supporters!

This all brings us to introducing Drinkagon Stretch Goals with pleasure - one by drunken one.

$8,500 Goal: Your own truth & dare card decks in the App / REACHED

Drinkagon backers, please sharpen your pens to write down your own custom card ideas, because the app upgrade is unquestionably happening! Right after releasing the first app version, we’ll develop and publish an update to enable creating your very own decks with questions and challenges. You will also be able to add your custom cards to any of the other available decks within the Drinkagon app. Get creative and make the truth&dare part very tricky and personal. :)

$12,000 Goal: Physical deck of 200 cards addon / REACHED

Your pledges are now potentially perkier for a high quality 200 cards deck. Along with those, the Drinkagon app will remain to be the active source of our new truth & dare challenges.

Add $14 to your existing pledge to get your own physical deck of cards. But why $14? We literally make no money on this one just because we want to deliver the cards in very high quality! :)

$20.000 Goal: Picnic edition of the game / REACHED

Add $9 to your existing pledge to get your own Picnic Edition Drinkagon (tote board).
Tote board can hold all the figurines with a dice and is perfect for almost any field trip. :).

We wanted to make it easier and cheaper for you while equally fair for everybody. That’s why we charge only $3 for worldwide shipping, while the rest of the rate will be covered at our own cost.

This project is customs and VAT friendly because of its pricing. You may incur duties in some countries, but only if there's more than one game in your order.

Note: Backers are charged AFTER the Kickstarter campaign ends, and ONLY IF the original goal is met.

Once upon a time in a small city of Rijeka (Croatia, EU) there were two guys (an IT geek and a smart marketing guru, both drinking specialists :D) that really wanted to make a different non-IT project and put it on Kickstarter. After a long time of brainstorming and thinking (30 minutes, to be precise) and while drinking their own homemade beer they came up with an idea of making a drinking board game.

Why a drinking game? Well, why not?! There are several drinking games on the market already available but most of them don’t have any mechanics and are too repetitive, and as a result they get boring really quickly. We wanted to change that and create a game which will be fun, different and will make you “happy” wink-wink. :) This is how Drinkagon was born.

The twist happened once we started really enjoying the product and the joy even multiplied when our play-testers started giving their highly positive feedback. It all got us into the phase of actually looking forward to the opportunity to see our game evoke the same effect on many other people around the globe. So what used to be a way for us to gather our basic knowledge and grow as a team, evolved to be a real thrill filled with the fireworks of excitement as the date of Kickstarting Drinkagon got closer. And closer. And it starts. :)

Help us produce it and deliver it to you by sharing our story! We are looking forward to expand the world of board games with one of our favorite products. It was designed with a high level of optimism and good fellowship, and hopefully it will bring a ton of good vibes to the future Drinkagon players!

Risks and challenges

The game comes with specially designed figurines made out of pure wood by local wood manufacturers and are carefully colored by hand. All the game pieces are produced in the EU.

In partnership with a local print factory specialized in producing board games, we are completely ready for serial production.

Our team has everything it takes to ensure you receive your game on schedule, as promised. We organized all the logistics and manufacturing in advance to avoid delays.

The biggest challenge that we could probably face is the unexpected number of backers and therefore some games might not be ready for the scheduled delivery as planned. Our great partners will do their best to scale the production if needed so each of you can receive the game in the shortest possible amount of time. <3
